Nota:
The Sinking of the Titanic is a work by British minimalist composer Gavin Bryars. Inspired by the story that the band on the RMS Titanic continued to perform as the ship sank in 1912, it imagines how the music performed by the band would reverberate through the water some time after they ceased performing.
Bryars "research notes" (reproduced in this publication) were first published in Sounding 9 (USA) in June 1975.
